Asymmetric hydrogenation of conjugated enones is one of the most efficient and straightforward methods to prepare optically active ketones. In this study, chiral bidentate Ir-N,P complexes were utilized to access these scaffolds for ketones bearing the stereogenic center at both the α- and β-positions. Excellent enantiomeric excesses, of up to 99%, were obtained, accompanied with good to high isolated yields. Challenging dialkyl substituted substrates, which are difficult to hydrogenate with satisfactory chiral induction, were hydrogenated in a highly enantioselective fashion.

We prepared various chiral α-alkyl, β-aryl ketones with good to excellent enantiomeric excess through the Baker's yeast asymmetric double-bond reduction of the corresponding α,β-unsaturated substrates adsorbed onto the resin Amberlite XAD-7. This methodology was compatible with substrates bearing both electron-donating and withdrawing groups attached to the aromatic ring. Elongation of the α-alkyl substituent of the starting material strongly affected the reactivity and enantioselectivity of the reaction.

Iridium phosphinitoxazoline complexes were found to be new efficient catalysts for the asymmetric hydrogenation of arylated α,β- unsaturated ketones. Linear as well as cyclic substrates are hydrogenated with similar success, giving selectivities of up to 99.7% ee.
